We performed a comparison between Check Point Remote Access VPN and Microsoft Intune based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Remote Access solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It is stable most of the time."
"We have more control over the activity that users have on the internal network, thanks to the monitoring offered by Check Point and the security provided by the gateway."
"Organizations that already use the Check Point NGFW Solution do not require any additional hardware, which makes the implementation straightforward and reduces the time to go live."
"The solution is easy for administrators because you can check logs and write rules on the same page."
"The most valuable feature is the seamless access."
"The biggest advantage of Check Point Remote Access VPN is that we already use the Check Point firewall. We only needed to enable the feature and do the configuration in order to enable the VPN feature. We didn't need to buy or manage new hardware. This was a big advantage."
"One of the features that I like most about this software is that it has a very intuitive, simple, and versatile interface that makes it easy to use and configure."
"I like the fact that Remote Access allows the administrator to control and manage things. It makes things smoother, and it has been an excellent experience."
"The solution is scalable. We currently have tens of thousands of users within our organization using the solution."
"The tool's most valuable feature is Autopilot."
"With on-premises Active Directory, the main challenge was that we had no control when a user was working from home. We didn't know what exactly a user was doing and whether the AV was up to date or not. Intune provides better control of their machines."
"Internet-based access with security is what I have found to be most valuable. It is also a stable and scalable solution."
"One of the best features is Windows Autopilot because if you change any of your devices, whatever security policies and compliance policies that applied can be easily migrated to the new devices. Windows Autopilot gives you that flexibility."
"I would say the biggest benefit is the single-pane view. There's no jumping around multiple UI's to do your overall management."
"Easy to use."
"The central administration con dashboard is very easy to use and provides very good oversight on all that needs to be monitored."
"It would be good to have Remote Access VPN solutions for Check Point edge services."
"There is always room for innovation and the addition of new features."
"Some configurations, like idle timeout (the requirement came from multiple users), are not possible to configure directly from the Check Point management server."
"The VPN remote Access blade could be improved."
"The interface itself needs improvement. When you need to create something, you have to go through a lot of steps. It needs to be simplified."
"For Linux machines, they don't have a full client to install. For the users that utilize Linux, there needs to be an equivalent."
"I would like the support to be faster."
"The maximum it is giving us is only 5 licenses and if you need more, they must be purchased separately."
"It doesn't economize when you scale up. We have over 14,000 employees, and we have between 7,500 and 8,000 city-owned or personal devices being used to conduct city business. Its price can be improved. It is not a cheap solution."
"The reporting is subpar. That's the only issue we have with Intune. We use another solution for that purpose."
"The backend of Microsoft Intune needs to be improved. We have seen a little bit of delay as compared to other MDM solutions. That needs to be improved. A little bit more granularity should also be added"
"Cost is the biggest factor for us right now. Microsoft Intune and AD P1 together in a bundle is a good thing to have, but it is very costly compared to other products in the market. Otherwise, Microsoft Intune is the best."
"The configuration and pricing can be improved."
"While Intune works perfectly well, the only potential downside is that the deployment could be a bit complex for some users."
"An issue we have run into with Microsoft Endpoint Manager is that we cannot patch third-party products like Adobe and Chrome with it."
"The pricing could be improved."
